Halloween Finishes on a Beautiful Fall Day

I started this felt mouse back in Septemberand got involved with other projects andshe got pushed aside. So after quilting allweekend and getting the urge to starta scrap quilt I made myself finish onething before starting something new.Does that ever happen to you? Thecreativity bug bites too often for meto finish projects!

She is made of felt with felt hat and cape.Her gingham skirt has a slip of orangetulle that I got from Nan at Ole Crows Nest Journal when I won her sweet candle.Nothing goes to waste! I felted her pumpkinwhich was the holdup in getting her done,that and her skirt.

We also went on a ride to see the fall colorswith our girls, Nubbin and Widget since itwas so pretty and sunny. But the bushesin my own front yard were the brightest!

The 'girls' enjoying the leaves!Hope you havetime to enjoy the fall too!
